What will be the compound interest on Rs. 14,000 for 2 years at the rate of 10% per annum compounded annually?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. Rs. 2,940.

CI = P[(1 + R/100)n - 1]

= 14000[(1 + 10/100)2 - 1]

= 14000[(11/10)2 - 1]

= 14000[(121/100) - 1]

= 14000 × (21/100)

= 2940
